What is Anal Fistula?
An anal fistula is an abnormal connection between the anal canal and the perianal skin. Dr Pinak offers the
latest minimally invasive laser technology to treat fistula. This process allows treating anal fistula without pain
and a nominal recurrence rate.
Types of Fistula:
There Are Four Types Of Fistula
Intersphincteric Fistula:The tract begins in the space between the internal and external sphincter
muscles and opens very close to the anal opening.
Transphincteric Fistula: The tract begins in the space between the internal and external sphincter
muscles or in the space behind the anus. It then crosses the external sphincter and opens an inch or two
outside the anal opening. These can wrap around the body in a U shape, with external openings on both
sides of the anus (called a horseshoe fistula).
Suprasphincteric Fistula: The tract begins in the space between the internal and external sphincter
muscles and turns upward to a point above the Puborectal muscle, crosses this muscle, then extends
downward between the puborectal and levator ani muscle, and opens an inch or two outside the anus.
Extrasphincteric Fistula: The tract begins at the rectum or sigmoid colon and extends downward,
passes through the levator ani muscle, and opens around the anus. These fistulas are usually caused by
an appendiceal abscess, diverticular abscess, or Crohn’s disease

Diagnosis:
The best fistula doctor in Chennai is Pinak Dasgupta, who uses various advanced diagnostic tests to
diagnose anal fistula. In most cases of anal fistula, the anorectal specialist can analyze it just through a
physical examination. In case the condition of the anal fistula is severe, the medical expert might need to
examine your rectum and anal canal. The commonly performed tests to diagnose anal fistula are:
Digital examination: In this test, the Dr. Pinak Dasgupta fistula expert inserts a gloved, lubricated
finger into the rectum to check if there are any kind of abnormal growths.
Visual inspection: The proctologist or the anorectal surgeon might analyze the lower rectum using a
proctoscope, an anoscope, or a sigmoidoscope. Using any of these devices, the doctor will carefully
examine the lining of your anal tissues to check the severity and depth of your anal fistula.
Anoscopy: The proctologist or the anorectal surgeon might analyze the lower rectum using a
proctoscope, an anoscope, or a sigmoidoscope. Using any of these devices, the doctor will carefully
examine the lining of your anal tissues to check the severity and depth of your anal fistula.
Imaging tests: Your physician may also order an ultrasound or MRI of the anal area to get a better view
of the fistula tract.
Treatment of Fistula By Dr. Pinak:
Fistula treatment in Chennai is done with different methods such as laser and surgical methods. Each
treatment method has its advantages and disadvantages. The goal of any surgery for a fistula in the anus is
to relieve the fistula or protect the anal sphincter muscles, which can cause incontinence if damaged. Dr.
Pinak Dasgupta at GEM Hospital chooses the best treatment option as per discussion with patients. Looking
for the best doctor for fistula treatment in Chennai, Internationally recognized surgeons at Dr.Pinak
Dasgupta GEM Hospital, Chennai offers holistic treatment for complex fistula with minimal recurrence rate
and almost zero incontinence rate. Fistula treatment options are below

The most common type of surgery for anal fistulas is a fistulotomy. This involves cutting along the whole
length of the fistula to open it up so it heals as a flat scar. A fistulotomy is the most effective treatment for
many anal fistulas, although it’s usually done in simple fistula where the risk of incontinence is less. This
procedure is not suitable in complex fistula and in cases where the risk of incontinence is considered too
high, sphincter preserving procedures are recommended. Dr. Pinak Dasgupta Fistula Specialist Surgeon in
Chennai uses a LASER as an adjunct to Fistulectomy to minimize the risk of damage to the sphincter muscle.
Thus, with the added advantage of Laser, the chances of post-operative pain will be negligible
Ligation of the intersphincteric Fistula Tract (LIFT):
The ligation of the intersphincteric fistula tract
(LIFT) procedure is the best treatment for fistulas
that pass through the anal sphincter muscles,
where a fistulotomy would be too risky. This is a
Highly efficient procedure with almost no
recurrences or incontinence. Dr. Pinak Dasgupta, a
well-known colorectal surgeon in Chennai,
specializes in complex fistula surgery. Moreover, he
is adept in LIFT, an advanced procedure for fistula
treatment in Chennai.
Fistula-tract Laser Closure (FiLaC):
The FILAC (fistula-tract laser closure) technique
aims to gently ablate the fistula tract without
injuring the sphincter muscle. The procedure uses
the Leonardo laser. With the patient under general
anesthesia, the procedure is completed in 30 to 40
minutes.
VAAFT:
This technique is minimally invasive and is a sphincter-sparing technique for treating complex fistulas. A
video telescope helps our expert fistula surgeons see inside the fistula tract. A polar electrode for the internal
pathway. During this process, it is connected to a high-frequency generator. Also, fistula brushes and forceps
are used to clean the tract and clean out granulation tissue.
FISTULA PLUG:
The fistula plug is a 100% synthetic bio-absorbable
scaffold. This plug is placed in the fistula tract. Over
time cells from the body migrate into the scaffold
and new tissue is generated as the body gradually
absorbs the plug material, leaving no permanent
material in the body
